Routes & Maps

Over 47,283 mapped miles of cycling routes & an emerging official U.S. Bicycle Route System.

Adventure Cycling works on two cycling route networks:

The Adventure Cycling Route Network is an established cycling route network with 47,283 miles of routes throughout North America. The Adventure Cycling Route Network is used by thousands of cyclists each year for bicycle touring. We sell maps for these routes, which are incredibly popular with cycle-tourists.

The U.S. Bicycle Route System (USBRS) is a proposed national network of bicycle routes, which will link urban, suburban, and rural areas using a variety of appropriate cycling facilities. In some states, Adventure Cycling routes will be incorporated into U.S. Bicycle Routes, along with other regional and state routes.
